LotR: War in the North Collector's Edition sets us all aquiver

Have you ever longed for a quiver in which to store video games? When The Lord of the Rings: War in the North launches this fall, your dream can become reality with the action-RPG's $130 Collector's Edition.

A trio of The Lord of the Rings: War in the North fact-nuggets have been announced today for Snowblind's action-RPG. Firstly, a fall 2011 launch has been confirmed for the PC, Xbox 360, and PlayStation 3 game. Secondly, the pre-order bonuses have been unveiled. Lastly, there will be a $130 Collector's Edition which comes in a quiver--yes, a case for holding arrows.
Packed into a leather-looking (pleather?) quiver, the $129.99 CE will offer a copy of the game, an art book, interviews and footage concerning the soundtrack by Inon Zur, and three tracks from the game soundtrack. On Xbox 360, you'll also get a set of Ranger armour, helmet, quiver and bow for your Avatar, whilst PlayStation 3 players will receive a PS3 theme pack instead. No word on any fancy digital bonuses for the PC edition.

As for pre-ordering, there are a selection of minor goodies--as pre-order bonuses should be--ranging from in-game items and quests to digital comics and physical posters. Here's what's on offer:
